Print and share Google Slides presentation effectively

Working with Google Slides offers many practical features, but above all, printing and sharing your presentations are crucial aspects for successful collaboration. In this guide, you will learn how to efficiently share and print your presentations, so you are always well-prepared.

Key Takeaways

• Through sharing, you can assign different permissions to users.
• Printing offers various customization options for your document.
• Before printing, carefully review your printer settings.

Step-by-Step Guide

Sharing Your Presentation

The first step you will take is to make your presentation available to others. The share button is located in the upper right corner of the screen and is displayed in orange. Here you can enter an email address to invite a person. It is important that the person you invite has a Google account.

To add a new person, simply enter the email address of the desired contact. You may already see a list of suggestions. In this example, we are adding the contact "Fabio."

After entering the email address, you have the option to set the permissions for the person. You can decide whether Fabio should act as a collaborator, commenter, or viewer. Collaborators can make changes, commenters can leave notes, while viewers can only see the content.

Have you chosen the appropriate permission? It is often recommended to allow collaboration or commenting. Effective communication often requires feedback and input from multiple sides.

Additional options allow you to specify whether the person should have permissions for sharing or editing. If you are managing a large project, it may be useful to invite multiple individuals to collaborate without having to enter each email address manually.

If you wish, you can also send personal messages to the invited individuals. This makes it easier to personalize the invitation and clarify expectations.

The invitation will then be sent to the specified email address, and the contact will receive a notification that they have been invited to the presentation. You can also copy the link to the presentation and share it, but only if the person has been added for collaboration previously.

If you want to remove an already added person or adjust their permissions, this is also quite simple from the shared management perspective.

Printing Your Presentation

To print your presentation, go to the print function, which is announced in the menu area. Alternatively, simply press "Ctrl + P" (Windows) or "Cmd + P" (Mac) to bring up the print menu.

In the print menu, you have the option to select the printer and specify the desired page numbering, such as specific pages or all pages. Here, you can also choose to save your presentation as a PDF.

Another crucial point is how many pages you want to print per sheet. You can flexibly adjust whether you want four or two slides per sheet, which is especially practical for school or work materials.

Do you need color or black-and-white printing? You should also consider print quality to ensure the presentation looks good on paper. If you opt for higher quality, make sure your printer supports it.

Finally, after inspecting the various print settings, including paper size and scaling, you can send your print job.

After all these steps, you are ready to use your presentation both digitally and physically!
